Draft genome sequences of 24 microbial strains assembled from direct sequencing from 4 stool samples

Abstract

The ability to assemble genomes from metagenomic sequencing avoids the need for culture and any associated culture biases. We assembled 24 essentially complete draft genomes from metagenomic pair-end and size-selected mate pair sequencing from 4 stool samples, 2 from subjects diagnosed with colorectal cancer and 2 from healthy controls.
